- If this was known why did nobody in Ineos advice Onley to not follow Pogi attack and then he blew big time.abstractengineer28-08-2026
- Years ago the French booed Armstrong (before his doping scandal)... they were booing Jonas in 2024... now they're booing Pogi, because, I guess, he didn't gift Seixas a win.PogiSloFans28-08-2026

- Hey Yankee, you're actually right, but I still have huge bollocks :))PogiSloFans28-08-2026
- Naesen: "The peloton don't view Pogačar as an opponent anymore." The peleton views Pogi as a half-god of cycling... just like the Greeks viewed Hercules, Perseus or Achilles.PogiSloFans28-08-2026
- I'm a 100% Slovenian. So are my parents and grandparents... yes, but we did live in the US years ago. I'm so happy we left after seeing what's happening there at this moment. The nazi-fascist orange orangutan is destroying the country. Just hope the Democrats win the midterms.PogiSloFans28-08-2026
- Hey Jumpyjohn, stop your blabbering which makes no sense. So “millions” for you can refer to anything from two million upward? Millions of people live in Slovenia.... because 2+ million is indeed millions??? We all know that in everyday speech it can sometimes sound like you're suggesting a much larger number. A reasonable person will never say that millions of people live in Slovenia, Croatia, Montenegro. North Macedonia, Latvia, Lithuania or even Austria. It's people like you, who like to fantasize and blabber, just for the sake of blabbering.PogiSloFans28-08-2026
- But you aren’t Slovenian … capish? American yes, Slovenian, not so much.
